Tiger Moon

Tiger Moon is the powerful, poetic story of the Sunquists' two years studying tigers in Nepal--traveling by elephant, avoiding a rhino attack, and learning to recognize individual tigers by roar. A new afterword tells the story of promising efforts to reconnect fractured Nepalese tiger habitats." F ull of unusual anecdotes . . . sloth bears shuffle by, leopards prowl the campsite's perimeter, scores of brilliant birds flit overhead, and camp elephants reveal their personalities. . . . T he tiger and the environment it occupies have become . . . a symbol of what is at stake. Tiger Moon is a chronicle of this symbolism, told passionately and accurately."--Ronald L.
